Serious Question...

[77matman]

If the Griz QB is as accurate as he's been since November they have a legit shot. The D will show up and slow but not stop the rabbits.

He's been very accurate on SOME passes, but holy crap he has been inconsistent. I've seen some absolutely horrible passes from him, including some that were directly to the wrong team. If he throws the ball to SDSU a couple times, zero chance UM wins.

Seems to get rattled when he gets lit up a few times. Passes to the defense then. I believe the path to success is to blitz him and still keep a spy back in case he runs. Means corners will need to man up and play on an island.


Go Jacks!!!

the gris just keep winning since they lost to nau. I think they win in a close game just like they have been doing.

If SDSU dbs can play man and get pressure it will be tough sledding. But Griz QB may get running lane. Griz haven't played from behind much since he started. Not sure he can lead them if get down 10-14 pts.

Everything is falling in place for the gris so it might be their year, goddamn that makes me sick saying it. Think of how they won their playoff games, just crazy ****** what 3 punt return touchdowns, kickoff return touchdown, a wr pass to complete a two point conversion, 2 OT wins. Then if you watched the NDSU game, NDSU had so many wide open drops, it was astounding. Then to boot the weather for travel down to Frisco looks great for them so they won’t have to deal with the ****** show MSU and all the fans had to deal with on the trip down to Texas. Hate ‘em’ every single one of them, at least right now anyways.

Take two aspirin, get plenty of rest, drink lots of water, keep a garbage can close to the bed. You’ll feel better in about a week.

This all correct... and it all happened in Washington Grizzly Stadium. Massive difference playing at a neutral site, against a team that is better than UM at nearly every position. SDSU will not miss a bunch of wide open receivers for TDs. They won't have 7 false starts. They won't be penalized 17 times with the Griz getting penalized twice. They probably won't kick to Bergen, but if they do, they're idiots. They probably won't turn the ball over four times as they are an extremely veteran, Senior laden team. This area is the only prayer for the Griz faithful IMO.

According to this article they asked Vigen to comment on the upcoming game, and he declined.

Does anyone else feel like there's an extreme amount of press on the gris? Was there this much when the Cats made it in 2021? Maybe, but seems like more this time.

Doesn’t seem like extreme amounts of press coverage. SDSU is clearly the favorite and understandably so. UM is playing in its 8th National Championship Game in a span of 28 seasons, so they get a little bit of press interest from that angle.

UM is a journalism school. Of course they get more press. Always have.

Not sure which I dislike more, Journos or gris...

I believe you are correct but it is worth pointing out that if the call of holding against the gris is still on vacation
as it appeared to be in the NDSU game then the gris will at least be able to hang around.

[BelligerentBobcat]

I don’t think the Griz keep it any closer than 14 points.

True, and I highly doubt they'll get away with all those outside of WA Griz. Also, yes I understand the refs aren't from Missoula, but they definitely get the majority of calls go their way when playing in that stadium, it's just the way it works. We are probably in the same boat in Bobcat Stadium, IMO.

My hope is that this game is decided by the beginning of the 2nd quarter. A 59-9 game would be good.

That would be hilarious! I remember a bunch of Griz fans making fun of the Cats for getting to Frisco and "embarrassing the state" by getting beat by NDSU by 28 points. That is one of many reasons where I would NEVER want the Griz to win that game, and I hope they get beat by more than 28.

All that said, I don't think it will be that much of a blowout, I'm sticking with a couple TDs.

Side note, Griz opened as 13.5 point underdogs. Have the Griz EVER been 13.5 point underdogs in an FCS game, ever? I doubt it.

The playoff teams with the softest defenses went home early. The top two defenses among the playoff teams are remaining. It should be fun.

I'm surprised several Griz players aren't going to pull a Florida State mass exodus knowing damn good and well they're going to get curb stomped just as bad as Georgia did to FSU. No home cooking in Tex ass for the griz.

Still can’t figure out why Bergen is playing in this game, if he willing to flip schools because of a coaching change, then he’d surely leave for “greener” pastures $$$$$ right??

Daddy warbucks. Their collective is ******, but they have a guy I don’t know if his name is Wa-Gris or Denny, but they have deeper pockets to keep players, even if they don’t have an organized well oiled collective like Brandon has set up for MSU.
